THE PURPOSE OF THE
“MISSION-MINISTRY OF THE MONTH”
is to highlight the missions-ministries St. Paul already supports (either
directly or by budgeted mission offerings), and/or those missions-ministries we
would like to encourage supporting through a free-will offering basket,
set by the kitchen window. You are not obligated to contribute, but all
free will contributions will be collected for the month and sent at that
time. You, of course, may also directly contribute to any highlighted
mission/ministry at any time, as you are inclined.
OUR MISSION-MINISTRY OF THE MONTH FOR JANUARY is the Native American Ministries (which this month is also one
of the missions supported by the South Dakota District of the Lutheran Church
Missouri Synod). - SEE INSERT
